Our new D.A.V.E. machine (Digital Analysis and Verification of Evidence) is now being announced. This computer will permit the efficient examination of all ATA/IDE/EIDE drives and all SCSI drives, as well as USB devices. It is hand-built with high quality components and is burned-in for a minimum of 48-hours before shipment. This unit will do everything from the initial acquisition of a suspect hard disk drive through the examination of the forensic copy of the media.  

The D.A.V.E. allows plenty of room for expansion and upgrading based upon the user's needs. It has been thoroughly tested in the field by conducting actual forensic examinations and has been found to be of excellent quality.  

We provide a no-questions-asked return policy (see below) for any defective materials for up to one-year after purchase, with absolutely no shipping expenses to the buyer.  The basic machine includes two Dataport (one ATA/EIDE and one SCSI) quick-connect hard drive carriers for easy
 data acquisition from multiple hard drives. A CD-RW drive is provided with all software for burning CD-ROM disks to permit easy archiving of information for your client.
